The U.S. oil and gas industry is navigating a “wait and see” period, shaped by flat global demand forecasts, geopolitical uncertainty, and rising operational costs. Rather than aggressively pursuing new large-scale developments, many companies are focusing on optimizing existing assets and completing in-progress projects.

What You’ll Learn: This session will explore how offshore operators, service providers, and maritime stakeholders are adapting to this transitional period, balancing near-term caution with long-term opportunity. Discussion will also examine the implications for vessel demand, supply chain strategies, and the evolving role of U.S. energy exports on the global stage.
